Bat 17 came to streator with their food truck, I will have to say probably one of the best burgers I've had! It was juicy and the toppings were perfect! I will have to say I hope they visit again!

Service was great! The burger was really good as well as the onion fries. The wings were just okay, some were too wet and some were crispier. They seemed to have all been cooked differently or something, since some were good and some were bad (dry meat and soggy texture on outside). The service was really good though!

Food was fine, but the service was terrible. My take-away from my experience was: Don’t be the least bit different from a typical sports bar patron, or be prepared to be treated like an alien from the moment you walk in the door until the moment you leave.

Rarely do I post reviews. But when I come across an experience that's so satisfying I feel I need to share. My wife and I went to a festival and Bay17 food truck was there. Display of food looked good so I gave it a shot. I chose their k2 or k3 think it was called burger. It's a bacon cheese burger with fried onions on it. Omg! I was the best burger I had in my life. No lie. I paid 18 dollars and it was well worth it. It was so huge it had to be a pound of meat. Obviously fresh grounded and from real quality meat. Seasoned to perfection. I mean you get your money's worth. Fries were so good and tasty. Reminds me of how Fries used to be back in the 70's.

Some people may say it's alot to pay but go to any bar restaurant and you paying close to that. 15 hours after and I'm still full. I'm going to check out there restaurant location and recommend all of you to do the same.

Lauren our server was really nice and attentive. She mentioned it was her first week in her role. However she seemed liked she worked there for way longer. Def coming back loved the bbq chicken salad.

Yum! My first time at Boli, which merged with Bat 17. You can order from both menus, and you can pay on InKind.

We had the vegan chorizo omelette and the lemon curd pancakes. They both had an after/taste that didn’t quite approximate the non-vegan version, but still tasty! I really liked the potatoes and the sourdough bread. I’d go again to try more items.

Beer good. Food good. I may not go there often, but the staff always makes me feel welcome there.

Just gets better with each visit.

Don’t order delivery from this restaurant! Was given an estimated delivery time of 45 minutes, through the tracker saw the driver was waiting at the restaurant, then kept getting texts that the delivery was delayed. Called the restaurant after an hour and was told the order miraculously “just came out of the kitchen.” Saw through the tracker we were assigned a new driver who was on his way to pick up the food, then saw he was at the restaurant waiting for the order, but the new estimated delivery time kept getting pushed back. Was about to call the restaurant again to see what was going on 90 minutes after we placed the order, only to get notified the order was cancelled. Naturally the restaurant blamed DoorDash but totally felt their story was fishy. Overall a super frustrating experience so order delivery at your own risk!

Food didn’t have any flavor, fries were burnt. Cool spot otherwise.
